Babysitting
The Babysitting course, refreshed and revised, now has a greater emphasis on First Aid skills. The Canadian Red Cross Babysitting course covers everything from managing difficult behaviours to essential content on leadership and professional conduct as a babysitter. Babysitting promises to deepen and enhance the responsibility that older youth feel when caring for younger children. This updated curriculum, complete with new science, also provides improved learning when it comes to giving the appropriate care in the event of an emergency.

Multi Activity Camp
Our camps are full of activities that encourage participants to laugh, explore, and play in a positive and safe environment. Each week consists of games, crafts, sports, swimming, and more. Activities take place both in and out of the facility. For your child to see success in these all-day camps, please ensure they have healthy nut-free lunch, nut-free snacks, a change of clothes, indoor and outdoor running footwear, hat, sunscreen,
water bottle, swimming attire, and proper clothing for the weather of the day.
Field Trips
An off-site field trip is included with each week-long camp. Our field trip locations will be determined closer to the start of summer. Previous year's field trips included: Yukon Wildlife Preserve, S.S. Klondike, Kookatsoon Lake, Long Lake, Yukon Beringia Interpretive Centre, and various parks within the city limits.
Monthly Calendar
A monthly calendar listing the daily themes and field trips for June, July, and August will be available on the first day of camp.
Camp Staff
We carefully select camp staff based on the following criteria: experience working with children, enthusiasm, strong leadership skills, and sound judgment. Camp staff also have two weeks of training prior to the first day of camps. All camp staff will possess a current First Aid and CPR, Level C Certification, WHMIS, and a clear RCMP Vulnerable Sector Check.
Payment Plans
Payment plans are available for all camps and must be set up in person or by phone at the time of registration. See page 11 for more detail.
